A properly functioning garage door will open and close in a process so smooth that you may think that there is little risk in attempting your own repairs. No matter your age, repairing a garage door can become a dangerous job.

Our Castro Valley Garage Door Repair is giving you some garage door safety tips that should help you make better repair decisions. Your first rule is do not attempt to adjust or replace your garage door springs or cables yourself. Both of them are under very high tension that could cause a very serious injury if they are not properly handled. If you find them broken or out of adjustment you should call one of our certified Valuemax Castro Valley Garage Repair technicians at 1-510-253-0448 or toll-free at (866)575-9050 to handle this repair.

Because the garage door springs are under high tension it is not an area for children to play. Children should not stand under or near a garage door. This is even more important if a garage door is open or moving. Remember that garage doors are not toys so keep children away. Never let children play with remotes. Never try to go under a moving garage door. Also, stand away from a moving garage door.

The bolts on the lower brackets of your garage door hold the garage door springs in place. These springs are under extreme tension that could result in serious injury if the bolts are improperly loosened. A simple rule is not to attempt to fix broken bolts. Call Valuemax Garage Door Repair Castro Valley to safely remedy this situation.

We are giving you a checklist for you to make garage door inspections so put it into practice. At the same time you can lubricate bolts, hinges, and rollers to keep them in good working order.
